Boyd collected five supporters’ clubs’ player of the year awards in total, beating Tom Heaton, with three, while Ashley Barnes claimed two, and Danny Ings one.

The annual Special Achievement Award went to stalwart Michael Duff, in his testimonial year - his 11th season with the club - while the Janice Fretwell Award went to Burnley Supporters’ Club’s Joyce and Stefan Haluk.
